Chapter 4040 "Difficult" Task
The shadow cast by the large wide-brimmed hat fell on the old lady's face.

The old lady's expression was a little blurry.

……

The woman narrowed her eyes slightly.

She saw a hint of confusion on the old lady's face.

After a moment of pause, an idea suddenly occurred to the woman.

The old lady was unfamiliar with the three words "Student Xiao".

……

"Mother."

The little boy looked up, a look of confusion on his face.

"Aren't you going to help grandma find her big brother?"

.....
"correct."

The little girl nodded innocently.

……

woman:……

Correct.

She remembers.

But later I saw the old lady coming straight to the small square...

She thought the old lady had forgotten what she was doing again.

……

result……

Does the old lady still remember it?
The woman looked at the old lady's profile.

……

As if noticing her gaze, the old lady withdrew her gaze from the two children.

The old lady looked at the woman.

There was a hint of urging in his eyes.

……

The woman smiled bitterly.

"I see."

"Please wait for me for a moment."

The woman raised her hand and hit herself on the head.

She felt a little annoyed.

Let her be self-righteous.

If she had known this, she should have asked Officer Li and the others for Xiao's contact information before she said goodbye to them.

Now you won't be in an awkward situation.

……

The woman was a little confused.

She looked at the two children.

"Huanhuan, Lele, Mom wants to give you a task."

“This task is somewhat difficult.”

“Can you do this?”

……

"What mission?"

"can!"

The little girl was puzzled.

the little boy assured loudly.

……

The woman laughed a little.

"I need you to go to the police station to find the police uncle."

"Ask him for Big Brother's phone number..."

The woman's voice became softer and softer as she spoke.

Even after she had said it, she still hesitated.

Should I send the two children to the police station?
The police station is not far from here.

And the two children had gone there on their own initiative before.

After learning about the two children's behavior, she and the children's father highly praised the two children.

Both children are very smart.

Know not to force yourself when you encounter something that is beyond your ability.

The best way is to ask the police for help when there is no adult around.

……

But even if the police station is not far from here...

As for the child's walking distance, it is also a few minutes away.

This few minutes' journey...

No one can guarantee what will happen...

……

Then let the two children stay and she goes to the police station?

but……

She was worried that the two children couldn't take care of the old lady.

We cannot be careless or slack about the old lady’s disappearance just because we successfully found her several times before.

No one can guarantee that the old lady can be found quickly and safely every time she gets lost...

……

It seemed like there were two little people fighting in the woman's head.

The woman put her hands on her head.

I just felt a dull pain in my head.

……

At this moment-
"receive."

The little boy held his head high and raised his hand in a military salute.

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

The little boy had a loud voice.

The eyes are even more sparkling.

……

"I got it, too."

The little girl immediately followed suit.

I also tried to straighten my little chest.

He raised his hand and gave a military salute that looked like a military salute at first glance, but turned out not to be quite the salute upon closer inspection.

The little girl glanced at her brother furtively.

The raised hand adjusted slightly.

Soon, the little girl also looked up at the woman.

The big eyes sparkled in the sunlight.

....
woman:……

She paused rubbing her head. After staring at the two children's serious faces for a while, the woman nodded.

"very good."

"Then Mom will leave this important and 'difficult' task to Huanhuan and Lele."

"Be careful on your way there."

“Don’t talk to strangers.”

"Don't look around."

"run-"

The woman immediately shook her head.

“Don’t be too anxious.”

"Be careful not to fall."

……

"…Mom and grandma are waiting for you here."

After thinking about it, the woman swallowed her worries and said to the two children with a smile.

……

"it is good!"

The two children responded loudly.

……

"Go."

The woman finally waved.

"Go back quickly."

As soon as these words fell, the woman said hurriedly, "There's no need to be too anxious."

……

"Mom, we're leaving."

The two children turned and stalked away.

……

Seeing the two children running away, the woman shouted, "Don't run."

"be careful."

"Stop falling."

……

The two children disappeared from the woman's sight.

The woman, who had just stood up when she saw the two children running, slowly sat back down.

She clenched her fists unconsciously.

……

The old lady gave the woman a strange look.

"Why don't you come along if you're so worried?"

……

woman:…….
Why didn't she go along?

It’s because of you, old man.

If she went, and the old lady suddenly felt like going to look for someone, how could the two children stop her?
She couldn't stop it.

When she came back, not only the old lady but also the two children were gone.

She was the one who was getting anxious.

……

Seeing that the woman didn't answer her, the old lady frowned slightly, then turned her head away indifferently.

……

The woman thought about it and explained, "I want to accompany you."

……

"I don't need your company."

The old lady's blunt reply made the woman take a deep breath.

"Don't you want me to help you find someone?"

……

"Did you find it?"

Hearing this, the old lady finally turned her head again.

……

"finding."

The woman forced a smile.

"Once the two kids come back, we'll be able to contact each other."

……

"Really?"

The old lady looked suspicious.

But because the distance was very close, the woman still noticed the faint expectation and uncertainty in the old lady's eyes.

The woman's expression relaxed.

"real."

She nodded seriously.

……

The old lady stared at the woman for a while.

Then nodded.

……

The old lady turned her head again.

Like I have sat here countless times before, looking forward.

It makes people feel that very soon, the person the old lady is waiting for will appear in her sight.

The old lady will have a happy smile on her face...

……

Seeing the old lady stopped talking.

The woman stopped talking.

Once no one talked to her, the vague, lingering worry about her two children instantly took hold of her mind.

She looked in the direction the two children left.

He was totally unaware that his face was filled with worry.

Is she being too bold?

Those two kids are still so young...

Can they really complete the task she assigned to them?

……

Time passed by minute by minute, and the woman suddenly stood up.

After a few seconds, the woman sat back down.

After a few seconds, the woman stood up again.

And so on and on.
